A passenger in a vehicle attempting to enter Interstate 10 in Leon County Monday night is dead.

At about 10:30 p.m., Mickey Nelson, 35, of Miami, was riding in the 2018 Nissan Altima driven by Aliah Cummings. Cummings, 22, of Sanford entered the westbound exit ramp on Mahan Drive and drove off the roadway onto the grassy shoulder.

The vehicle hit a reflective marker, continued down the embankment and hit a tree, according to the Florida Highway Patrol. Nelson was pronounced dead about an hour after the crash. A third passenger was uninjured.

It is unknown if Nelson was wearing a seatbelt. Charges are pending, according to FHP.

The crash was one of four in the Big Bend area during rainy conditions brought on by Subtropical Storm Alberto on Monday.

Two people were hospitalized in serious condition after their car was split in half when it hit a tree on I-10 in Jefferson County. A truck caught on fire after another I-10 crash at about noon. In Tallahassee a driver hit a utility pole on Orange Avenue knocking out power to more than 200 people.
